Virus concerns aside (let's say it disappeared completely), if there was a vote:

A) Back to normal
B) Lockdown FOREVER (no parties, no pubs, no clubs, no travel, no work required and you get benefits/welfare to stay at home)

What would we get?

I'm a bong and here I would guess 80%+ would vote for B.

Most people do fuck all other than stay at home anyway. This is great news for them. It's another motivation for people to be spreading alarmist crap on FB, i.e. because they WANT it to be bad and they WANT life to stay shut down.

It could even be 90%, I don't know.

We are completely fucked

i am dreading the day i have to go back to the office. working from home for the past month and a half has been a little challenging but much, much better than driving 35 minutes in soul crushing traffic. only downside is they cut our pay by 20% but it's almost worth it.

Not even close. Only people who were NEETs before this would maybe vote for B but everyone else would probably want to go back. The biggest redpill is people were already doing what comes easiest/natural to them and that is NOT the NEET life for most people.

Didn't happen, it's a meme.

You get the same here in England - people re-posting sob stories allegedly from ICU nurses and shit, saying it's like a warzone, bodies piled high, doctors dropping dead all over the place, etc.

This vs. govt figures saying we have 1000s of spare beds and are NOWHERE NEAR capacity, plus everyone knows a fair few doctors and speaking to any normal one of them confirms that work is really quiet rn and none of that bullshit is happening.

Spend less time on facebook, fren.

Fair, anon. I guess it would wear thing eventually, but 6mo off? Still feels like a holiday. People also avoid the NEET life for all kinds of social shaming reasons but if everyone is off, or if they're off [[[for a good cause]]] then that's dealt with and they can indulge their neethood.

Governments aren't smart. They don't implement lockdowns until it's already too late in certain areas. When they do, the lockdown they implement is intended to cover their ass.

So London is hit by coofing pakis, but the order will be to put every NHS hospital on high alert - clearing schedules and preparing spare beds.

Then, because the lockdown is in effect, Xi Jinplague doesn't spread to York or wherever the fuck fast enough to make a dent or use that area's surge capacity.

So yeah, right back at you, stupid NEET. Nobody fucking wants this. We already have (retards) going out and protesting the lockdowns and it's only been a few weeks. Normies are going insane.

People prefer actual economic stability to uncertain emergency welfare packages (and places like the US are frankly getting fuckall atm, a one-time payment of $1.25k, whoop-de-fucking-doo)

>Didn't happen, it's a meme.

This whole shit really exposes how utterly worthless the tertiary sector is, even though it's now 99% of the job market. 1% of people can produce all the primary resources we actually need, and the rest is just made up service bullshit we can perfectly survive without, this economy is such a meme.

>> No.18658548

p.s. for anyone who thinks people want to go back to normal/work, go and read any major news site's comment sections, it's 99% screaming about how dangerous it would be, how we need to stay shut down all year, how IRRESPONSIBLE it is for anyone to suggest otherwise.

Like this retard here who thinks hospitals have melted down just because some hysterical spanish nurse posted a video of herself crying on instagram.

No. Especially when you forbid them to socialise and travel. Everyone is already moaning about not partying, clubbing, fucking, etc. People only grudgingly support the lockdown because they are told it is for the greater good. But while many enjoyed a few weeks off work to relax and do stuff around the house, or work from home, many are also very bored and hate not socialising. There are already people killing themselves over it.

Most jobs are daycare for adults. We are conditioned from an early age that it is "normal" that every day we are supposed to go somewhere else that we would rather not be at, and do something all day that we would rather not be doing.
